A5 . Problem Definition/Background
A5 . 1 Proiect Location :
The 80 . 3 -acre East Roseland Watershed lies in northern Indian River County , in
the community of Roseland . (see Figure A. 2 Site Location Map ) The longitude of
the project site is 800E 30 ' 20 " and the latitude is 270N 50 ' 0 " . The site is located
within Section 30 , Township 31 S , Range 39E .
The project watershed currently drains into the St. Sebastian River which drains
into the Indian River Lagoon , a state priority water body designated under the
Surface Water Improvement & Management Program ( SWIM ) , a designated
Estuary of National Significance , and part of the state ' s Unified Watershed
Assessment Program . This estuary is also a NPS priority water body and a
wintering habitat of the West Indian Manatee . Currently , this East Roseland
Watershed has not implemented BMPs or stormwater treatment alternatives to
reduce the stormwater runoff entering into St . Sebastian River and the Indian
River Lagoon .
A5 . 2 Proiect Description :
The East Roseland Stormwater Improvement Project will incorporate best
management practices to provide water quality treatment , reduce peak flows and
flooding , and reduce the amount of pollutant loadings into the St . Sebastian River
and the Indian River Lagoon . The project involves the construction of a
stormwater detention lake and associated stormwater conveyance systems . The
lake ' s water surface area will be about 1 . 51 acres . The project will provide flood
protection and erosion control , and it will promote health benefits by reducing the
amount of ponded , stagnant stormwater runoff in the area .
The Project will provide a wet detention treatment system with a controlled
discharge rate . The resulting lake overflow into the St. Sebastian River and
ultimately into the Indian River Lagoon , a Class III , Outstanding Florida Water
Body , will be improved through reduced sedimentation and nutrient uptake in the
treatment lake . The stormwater lake ' s influent and effluent water quality will be
monitored ( post- construction ) to determine the pollution removal effectiveness of
the lake . No historical data exists for this site . Due to the ecological significance
of the St. Sebastian River and the Indian River Lagoon , water quality monitoring
will be an integral part of this project to determine the degree of treatment
provided .

The samples will be composite sampies taken by automatic stormwater samplers
during or immediately after rainfall events . An automatic sampler will be installed
near the stormwater lake inlet pipe and the other will be installed near the
stormwater lake ' s overflow weir. Each automatic sampler will be activated based
on a rise in water depth in the lake . Once activated , the samplers will take flow-

weighted samples at fifteen - minute intervals . Rainfall data will be collected at the
lake with an associated rain gauge and compared against rainfall data obtained
from the nearest weather station . However, if the lake depth drops to a
predetermined level within four hours after initiating sampling , the samplers will
shut off, since this will indicate a non -significant rainfall event . All sampling
intake points will be located near the lake ' s influent pipe or effluent weir (within
ten to fifteen feet) , as applicable , and approximately mid -depth in the water
column .
The sample locations are shown on Figure A . 2
Sampling will consist of seven ( 7 ) rainfall events ( composite samples ) .
All of the parameters that will be measured are for information . Since this project
is a stormwater system retrofit , there is no critical parameter of concern . The
purpose of the stormwater sampling is to determine the pollution removal
effectiveness of the constructed stormwater management system .
B2 . Sampling Methods Requirements
B2 . 1 Sample Collection Procedures and Methods
Automatic stormwater samplers will collect post-construction composite samples .
Each automatic sampler will be equipped with a large plastic sample container
that is properly cleaned before each sampling event . The automatic samplers will
be programmed to take a flow-weighted sample every fifteen minutes . Once
activated , each sampler will draw the flow-weighted sample through a Teflon
tube , into its sample container every 15 minutes for approximately six hours or
until at least 4 , 800 mL is collected . The composite sample containers will be
thermally preserved during the collection process , then the composite jug will be
stirred and siphoned into lab-supplied bottles that have been properly chemically
preserved , and the samples will be transported to the laboratory on ice in order to
ensure proper preservation . At the time of collection of the samples , field
measurements (temperature , pH , salinity , dissolved oxygen ) will be performed .

Sample Locations and Other Pertinent Sampling Information :
Sample locations are shown on the attached figure .
Composite samples will be taken by automatic stormwater samplers . Each
automatic sampler will take flow-weighted composite samples ( Le , the amount of
sample collected is proportional to the flow rate ) . The composite sample
containers will be thermally preserved during the collection process , the
composite jug will be stirred and siphoned into lab- supplied bottles ( in the field )
that have been properly chemically preserved , and the samples will be
transported to the laboratory on ice in order to ensure proper preservation .
Each automatic sampler will be activated based on a rise in water depth in the
lake . Once activated , the samplers will take flow-weighted samples at fifteen
minute intervals for approximately six hours or until at least 4 , 800 mL is collected .
However, if the lake depth drops to a predetermined level within four hours after
initiating sampling , the sampler will shut off, since this will indicate a non -
significant rainfall event . The sample suction points are located near the influent
pipe or effluent weir (within ten to fifteen feet) , as applicable , and are
approximately mid -depth in the water column .
Field samples (Temperature , pH , Salinity , and Dissolved Oxygen ) will be taken
in the vicinity of each sample suction point. Proposed field instruments are :
( 1 ) YSI Environmental 4 YSI 63 pH/Salinity/Conductivity/Temperature
Instrument , and
(2 ) YSI Environmental 4 YSI 55 Dissolved Oxygen Instrument .
